According to news from Christian activists inside Iran, the Christian Voice of Iran (VOCIR) news agency, Sina Dehqan who is currently serving his sentence in the central Arak prison, was convicted of forming a teacher protest campaign and insulting holy sanctuaries through his writings on the network Line and Instagram.


Sina Dehqan’s partner Sahar Aliasi a female football coach, was also sentenced to six years imprisonment on charges of participating in a protest rally in Tehran in March of 2014, as well as a member of the protest-ideological campaign and critical articles through the online network.
